OAKLAND — On the 15th anniversary of Scott Hatteberg’s walk-off home run that clinched an American League-record 20th-consecutive win, the A’s fell just short of pulling off another dramatic comeback at the Oakland Coliseum.
The Los Angeles Angels spoiled the excitement of Matt Olson’s two-out, two-run home run in the ninth Monday, scoring a pair of runs off reliever Blake Treinen (1-3) in the 11th to pull out an 11-9 win over the A’s.
The Angels erased the excitement of Olson’s homer, regaining the lead in the 11th after Kole Calhoun tripled to right, scoring Justin Upton and Eric Young Jr.
